GENTEC® Nitrogen aircraft tire inflation kits allow for easy, cost effective filling of General Aviation aircraft tires with pure Nitrogen. Due to the complex nature of construction and the severe operating conditions of aircraft tires, Michelin and other leading tire manufacturers recommend the use of Nitrogen as does the FAA. Nitrogen is a totally inert gas that will not support corrosion, oxidation or moisture within aircraft wheels and tires. Nitrogen has a larger gas molecule than air, so low tire pressure due to allowable leakage is minimized. Nitrogen also maintains a lower thermal coefficient, thus minimizing thermal damage and extending tire life versus compressed air.
